5. Laboratories
Courses offered in construction materials, hydraulics, soil mechanics, structures,
transportation, construction management and drawing are supported with
experimental work in the laboratories. Although hands-on laboratory work is the
major objective, some experiments can only be demonstrated. A written report,
generally including analysis and interpretation of data, is required. In some cases, an
oral presentation is also required at the end of a laboratory work. Interested
students are always welcome to work in the laboratory and gain more experience.
These students are encouraged to take higher level courses as area electives to
further enhance their laboratory skills.

5.1 Construction Materials

Equipped with modern apparatus to perform all the physical and mechanical tests
on materials of construction as well as most of the chemical tests and analyses. The
properties of gypsum, lime, cements, bricks, blocks, aggregates, concrete, etc. can be
determined in this laboratory, which is used both for instruction and research and for
services to industry.
5.2 Geodesy Laboratory
Provides instruction and research in the field of geodesy. In addition to classical
geodetical equipment, the laboratory includes electronic distance measuring units.
5.3 Okay Camgz Geology Laboratory
Provides physical materials to study rocks, minerals and fossils to gain familiarity with
geological methods and materials. The emphasis on problem solving leads to better
understanding of the fundamental principles taught in the corresponding lecture
course.
5.4 Tevfik Tarmcolu Hydraulics Laboratory

Virtual reality (VR) technology allows users to interact with a medium similar to an
imaginary or real computer generated. It is a technology running through visual
stereoscopic glasses or modified monitors. It allows the user to perform threedimensional 3D analysis without the need for the model or the real building. When
combined with other multi-dimensional technologies, VR visualizes construction
phases, the work-space-relations tools in the third dimension 3D for the desired
purpose.
5.8 Computer Laboratory (including Mustafa Harmanc Laboratory)
There are three PC laboratories equipped with modern computers, providing
continuous Internet connection and access to campus network. These computers are
installed with a wide range of software tools for various computing needs in courses,
projects, and research. The software includes Etabs, Safe, SAP2000, AUTOCAD,
Corsim, TRANSYT-7F, QuantumGIS, Matlab, Python, Grapher and PLAXIS V8. Students
may use the laboratories between 8.00 -17.00 on week days.

6. Other Facilities
6.1 Departmental Library
Civil Engineering Department has a library being supplementary one to the university
main library (zay Oral Library). It contains mainly civil engineering books, journals

and proceedings. Students can use them in place during day time. University main
library has many opportunities for the students. In addition to the nominal book
collection in the field of civil engineering on campus of EMU, books and journals in
many other libraries can be obtained through inter-library loan services. The On-Line
Database at the central library provides access to the publications of many
professional organizations, such as the IMO, TUBITAK, EMU, and Anadolu University.
The Department has its own library providing some reference books.
6.2 Construction Club
Civil Engineering Construction Club is a formal activity club of students to organize
social, cultural and academic activities for them. The activities start with the
orientation program at the beginning of the academic year and continue with
seminars, conferences, and field trips. They arrange a diner party each semester and
the traditional Civil Engineering Week in May of each year. During this week the
professionals are invited to deliver seminars about the real engineering life, and
problems in construction sites besides social and cultural activities.

DIPLOMA AWARDING TO SUMMER SCHOOL GRADUATES

10. Student Admissions

Specific categories and regulations for admission of students to the program are as
follows:
Turkish Students:
i) Turkish students seeking admission for the first time must take the Turkish
University Entrance Examination (YS) administered by the Office of
Student Selection and Placement (SYM). The number of students taking
this exam each year exceeds one and a half million. Only those students
whose names appear on the official list of SYM indicating that they have
been placed at EMU University can be admitted.
ii) The Turkish Cypriot students admitted through central entrance exam
organized by EMU.
iii) The Dikey Gei Snav, which can be translated as the Upward Mobility
Exam, is an exam for graduates of vocational schools. A very small number
of exceptionally successful Turkish students are placed in the Program
through this exam by the SYM. Since these students have studied some
subjects at their respective vocational schools prior to admission to the
Program, they are treated as transfer students once they are admitted and a
special exemption course list is prepared for them which is detailed in
transfer student section.

29

Foreign Students:
All foreign students having secondary school diploma are accepted to the
department.
All Students:
All students, whether Turkish or foreign, who have been admitted to the program are
required to take the EMU University English Proficiency Test. Those who pass this
test can enrol in Freshman Courses. Those who fail are admitted to the School of
Foreign Languages to study English for a period of up to two years. These students
can continue their undergraduate studies only upon successful completion of their
English preparatory year.

11. Evaluating Student Performance

During registration for each semester, the on-line registration system initially screens
the tentative list of courses proposed by the student to ensure that it complies with
the academic rules and the curriculum (i.e. number of allowed credits, prerequisites,
performance status, etc.). The advisors then review the proposed schedule of each
student, as well as their up-to date performance, and provide guidance so that the
students entire program is of a nature which is best suited to his interests and
capacity, as well as to the curriculum of the Civil Engineering Program.
A student is granted one of the letter grades below for each course he/she has
attended, in accordance with the instructor's evaluation of the student's grades in
the course requirements:
11.1 Course Grades and Grade-Points
Thirteen categories of scholastic achievement, ranging from "superior" to "failure"
(A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, D-, F, NG), are recognized as valid end-of-course
grades or letter grades. These grades are indexed on a scale of "0 to 4", termed
"Grade-Points." The symbol "NG" (Nil Grade), indicates poor attendance and/or a
failure to complete assigned work (including exams). The letter grades are indexed to
Grade-Point equivalents as shown in the table.
Four other symbols are also used in grading, for special circumstances. "W"
(withdrawn), indicates withdrawal from a course before the end of a term. In case

30

where a student has been authorized to delay completion of course work past the
normal end-of-term, the an "I" (incomplete) grade may be given until a formal grade
is reported by latest one week before the starting date of the following semester. For
project courses this date cannot be extended beyond the above mentioned deadline.
Achievement in a non-credit-hour course is indicated by the symbol "S" (satisfactory)
or "U" (unsatisfactory).

In the case of repeated course work, the last grade earned is considered the official
course grade. No grade-point equivalent is assigned for the notations I, W, S, and U.
11.2 Evaluation of a Course
A course is said to have been successfully completed if a student, obtains a grade of
A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D or S. A course in which a student receives a grade of
D-, F, NG or U is not satisfactorily completed, and the student is required to repeat
such a course in the next semester if it is offered. A letter grade E (exemption) which
will not contribute to GPA and CGPA calculations will be awarded for the courses of
the students transferred from other institutions based on Departments transfer
criteria.
Students must repeat required courses for which they have received a grade of D-, F,
NG and U during the earliest semester the courses are offered. Students who have
received D-, F or NG grade from an elective course must repeat that course in the
first semester it is offered or take an equivalent course. In this case, the grade
received in the new course replaces the D-, F or NG, but the previous grade will
appear in the student's academic records. Depending on students academic standing
she/he must repeat courses with letter grades C- or below until his/her academic
status improved to satisfactory level as defined in By-laws of the Senate.
Depending on students entrance year there are two different categories that classify
their academic status.

A student's achievement is determined by his/her "Grade Point Average" (GPA),

which pertains to courses he/she has taken in the semester he/she has completed,
and his/her cumulative "Cumulative Grade Point Average" (CGPA) that pertains to all
courses he/she has completed to date. To calculate a student's CGPA, the numeric
value of each letter grade earned in a course is multiplied by the number of credits
awarded to that course, and their sum is divided by the total number of credits
completed. The number of credits awarded to each course is determined by the
University Senate.
Students with poor academic performance are placed on probation status as
detailed in tables above. A student on probation for two consecutive semesters is put
on repeating status. Probation students cannot register more than 2 new
credited, whereas students on repeating status should first repeat their all the

32

courses lower than C until they raise their CGPA to the required level depending on
his/her academic/actual term. The course load of a "repeating" student cannot
exceed his/her academic term course quota requirement.
When a course is repeated, the last credit earned is substituted in place of the
previous value.

Example:
Assume that a student is registered the following courses and got the following
grades.

11.3 Honour and High Honour Students

A student who (with a normal course load) obtains a GPA between 3.00 and 3.49 is
designated an "Honour Student". A student who obtains a GPA between 3.50 and
4.00 is designated a "High Honour Student".
11.4 Compulsory Transfer
If a student who received a Final Academic Warning (4 W) fails to raise his/her CGPA
above the limit in the following semester, he/she will be given a compulsory transfer
from the Civil Engineering Department program.

12. Advising Students

Once the students are admitted, they are guided through their academic programs
by their assigned academic advisors. Students are given an undergraduate catalogue

34

and an orientation program describing the registration and academic rules and
procedures of the University.
The students are constantly encouraged to meet with their advisors regularly to
discuss their academic/social affairs and general well-being. Each student demand
including registration, add-drop, withdrawal, credit overload or underload, and
enrolment in a student exchange program, must be first approved by the advisor
before submittal of an application to the Deans Office. The on-line registration
system allows the advisor to keep a file for each student, including copies of the
registration forms, records of add-drops and withdrawals, flowchart of curriculum
course content showing the prerequisite chain, and semester grade records and
transcripts.
Few students with disabilities and/or having emotional problems need special
advisor-student interaction. Advisors act as frontline resource in advising the
students to seek help at the University Counselling Office (PDRAM).

13. Transfer Policies of the Civil Engineering Department

There are two categories of transfer students that can transfer to the civil
engineering department.
13.1 Internal Transfer within the Eastern Mediterranean University
Students from the different departments of the engineering faculty or from other
faculties of the Eastern Mediterranean University may apply to transfer to the civil
engineering department provided that their existing CGPA is 1.50 or above. In
addition to the minimum CGPA requirement, the following criteria are applied:
Students with Turkish nationality must have the minimum entrance examination
score required by the Turkish Higher Educational Council (YK) for entrance to the
civil engineering department in the year they were accepted for registration to the
Eastern Mediterranean University.
No entrance examination requirements are needed for students from other
countries, since there are no entrance examinations for such students. The TRNC
nationals have the right to transfer irrespective of their entrance exam scores.
Students accepted for transfer to the civil engineering department are given
exemptions for several courses that they have succeeded in their previous
departments or faculties. The exemptions are granted by the transfer committee of
the civil engineering department. The transfer committee consists of three faculty

35

members of the civil engineering department. The number of the exempted courses
determines the students academic term. Therefore utmost care is taken so that the
transfer students do not fall into a warning status with the number of exempted
courses. In no case courses with grades F, D- and NG are exempted. The existing
grades for the exempted courses are placed as they are (with no change) to their
new transcripts.
13.2 Transfers from Other Universities
This type of transfer may be from the civil engineering departments of other
universities or from other engineering faculties of universities. Two different groups
of students may apply for this type of transfer.
A- Turkish Nationals
B- Other Nationalities

A. Turkish Nationals
These applicants are subdivided into two categories:
1. Students attending university level institutions
2. Graduates of two-year vocational schools

1. Students attending university level institutions

Four types of applications are accepted.
i. Students attending departments other than civil engineering: These
students must pass the entrance examinations conducted by Turkish
Higher Educational Council (YK). The courses taken at their previous
university are considered and equivalents ones are given exemptions.
CGPA requirements are not taken into consideration in these cases. For
the exemptions E letter grade is used.
ii. Students attending from the civil engineering department of other
universities: These students must pass the entrance examinations
conducted by Turkish Higher Educational Council (YK). The courses taken
at their previous university are considered and equivalents ones are given
exemptions (E letter grade). CGPA requirements are not taken into
consideration in these cases. In these cases the number of exempted

36

courses does not exceed the half of the total number of courses required
by the civil engineering department of the Eastern Mediterranean
University.
iii. Students attending departments other than civil engineering and whose
entrance examinations marks conducted by Turkish Higher Educational
Council (YK), is equivalent to the mark required to enter civil engineering
departments in the year of their registration. Additional requirements for
such students are that their CGPA must be minimum 2.00 and must not
have failed courses in their transcript. The courses taken at their previous
university are considered and equivalents ones are given exemptions (E
letter grade). CGPA requirements are not taken into consideration in
these cases. But the number of exempted courses should not exceed the
half of the total number of courses required by the civil engineering
department of the Eastern Mediterranean University.
iv. Students attending departments of civil engineering and whose entrance
examinations marks conducted by Turkish Higher Educational Council
(YK), is equivalent to the mark required to enter civil engineering
departments in the year of their registration. Additional requirements for
such students are that their CGPA must be minimum 2.00 and must not
have failed courses in their transcript. The courses taken at their previous
university are considered and equivalents ones are given exemptions (E
letter grade). CGPA requirements are not taken into consideration in
these cases. But the number of exempted courses does not exceed the
half of the total number of courses required by the civil engineering
department of the Eastern Mediterranean University.
2. Graduates of two-year vocational schools
Two groups of applicants exist in this category.
i. Student that have passed the special exam (DGS) given by the Turkish
Higher Educational Council (YK). This exam is for graduates of two-year
vocational schools. Any student transferred through this special system is
given exemption for approximately half of the courses (E letter grade) in
the first and second year curriculum of the civil engineering. Such
students are in probation until they complete all the courses of the first

37

and second year curriculum that they are being assigned to. These
exempted courses are approved by the departmental faculty board. The
remaining courses (the assigned ones) must be completed within three
semesters plus one additional summer term if the student needs. The
probation status is lifted if the student passes all these assigned courses.
These students have the right to fail in maximum two courses at the end
of their probation period. If a student is unsuccessful in more than two
courses then automatic dismissal from the university follows. During
his/her probation period the academic warning criteria are not applied.
ii. Students who graduated from vocational schools but instead of attending
the special exam (DGS) but attended and passed the entrance
examination (SYM) given by the Turkish Higher Educational Council
(YK): These students are given exemption in approximately one quarter
of the courses in the first and second year of the civil engineering
curriculum. The exemptions (E letter grades) are subject to the approval
of the departmental faculty board. University regulations for students
progress are applied to these transfer students.

B. Other Nationalities
Students accepted for transfer to the civil engineering department are given
exemptions (E letter grades) for several courses that they have succeeded in their
previous departments or faculties. The exemptions are granted by the transfer
committee of the civil engineering department and approved by the
departmental faculty board. The number of the exempted courses determines the
students academic term. Therefore utmost care is taken so that the transfer
students do not fall into a warning status with the number of exempted courses.
In no case courses with failing grades are exempted. There is no CGPA restriction
for these students. In these cases the number of exempted courses does not
exceed the half of the total number of courses required by the civil engineering
department of the Eastern Mediterranean University.

14. Graduation Requirements

A student is entitled to graduate if he/she:
1. Satisfactorily completes all the required number of credited and non-credited
courses depending on the syllabus followed by the student
2. Completes the 40-day summer training, and
3. Attains a CGPA of at least 2.00.
If at the time of his/her graduation a student has achieved a CGPA of 3.00 or greater,
this will be indicated on his/her graduation Diploma/Certificate and official transcript
as follows: students with a CGPA in the range 3.00-3.49 "Honours"; students with a
CGPA in the range 3.50-4.00 "High Honours."
If a student fails to meet the above mentioned criteria for graduation then
depending on his/her marks and CGPA then he/she would have two options.
a) Student could take Graduation Make-Up Exams, if he/she failed from
maximum two courses and has either adequate level of CGPA or after taking
the exam will have a CGPA more than or equal to 2.00. Graduation Make-Up
Exams could take place at the earliest 15 days after the last day of the final
exam and latest by the last day of the Add/Drop Period of the following
semester. Students could attend up to two Graduation Make-Up Exams from
courses that they failed within the last two semesters prior to the date of the
exam or if they fail to achieve a CGPA= 2.00 then they can take two
Graduation Make-Up Exams from courses that they achieved letter grades of
D, D+, or C-. Students have the right to attend Graduation Make-Up Exams
only once during their complete time of study in the Department of Civil
Engineering. If they fail these exams then they have to register with the
department in the following semester.
b) After consulting his/her Academic Adviser, if it is clear that the student
cannot achieve the necessary criteria for graduation by attending Graduation
Make-Up Exams then the student should register to failed courses or

39

preferably courses with letter grades of D, D+, or C- in the following

semester.
c) Graduation Make-Up Exam will not be given to any student who receives NG
grade.
Graduation is conferred by the University Senate upon the request of Faculties and
Schools. The Diplomas/Certificates are prepared by the Office of the Registrar, and
describe the name of the program, the date of graduation, and the degree or title
obtained.
